India 296/5.

IND vs SL LIVE SCORE: Both Ravindra Jadeja and Dhruv Jurel are playing for stumps and nothing much is happening in the middle. It's just a dull passage of play as Asitha Fernando and Prabath Jayasuriya try to prize out a wicket before the close of play.

IND vs SL LIVE SCORE: The second new ball has been taken as soon as it was made available. Asitha Fernando is introduced back into the attack.

India 291/4

India 291/4

IND vs SL LIVE SCORE: BOWLED! Keshara Nuwantha strikes and Padikkal walks back after scoring 117. The spinner pushes this one quicker with a flatter trajectory and Padikkal goes right back and is undone by the guile. The ball goes past the outside edge and crashes into the off-stump.

India 281/4.

IND vs SL LIVE SCORE: This is poor bowling from Mishara. He keeps dropping it short and Padikkal keeps cutting them away for boundaries. India are picking runs off a tiring Sri Lankan attack. Make the most before the second new ball becomes due.

India 269/3.

IND vs SL LIVE SCORE: Padikkal just glides the ball towards long-on and brings up his century. His second of the series. The left-hander goes back-to-back.

India 258/3.

India 246/3.

IND vs SL LIVE SCORE: The left-handed batter just glides the ball towards fine leg and the left-hander gets his third boundary. Jadeja and Padikkal are moving the scoreboard along quite nicely.

India 226/3

IND vs SL LIVE SCORE: The bowling rate has been abysmal to say the least. The scheduled close of play is 5 PM but Sri Lanka have bowled just 62 overs till now. It's safe to say that the play would be extended to 5:30 PM but still the hosts won't be able to complete the full quota of overs.

India 222/3.

IND vs SL LIVE SCORE: Lahiru Kumara is bowling some nasty deliveries and Ravindra Jadeja is doing his best to keep the short balls out. Some spell from the Sri Lankan pacer. Good probing Test cricket in Colombo.

IND vs SL LIVE SCORE: First boundary for Ravindra Jadeja. Just sheer timing from the left-hander and India's scoreboard keeps moving.

India 215/3 in 59 overs.

IND vs SL LIVE SCORE: Ouch! That must have hurt! Ravindra Jadeja joins Padikkal in the middle as Rishabh Pant retires hurt after being hit on the wrist bone by a Lahiru Kumara delivery. Lahiru dropped it short and Pant went for a pull, only to be hit on his hand. Pant was in visible pain and the physio came charging out.

The physio applied tape but it went off immediately. The umpire had a word with Pant and the latter then walked off.

India 207/3

IND vs SL LIVE SCORE: Nuwantha bowls it slow but Padikkal rocks back to play it late. The left-handed batter waited for the ball to arrive and then guided it past the fielder at short third man. Another boundary for Padikkal. He moves to 76.

India 205/3 in 56.2 overs.

IND vs SL LIVE SCORE: Asitha Fernando has employed the short ball tactic and he continues to bowl one bumper after another. However, Padikkal and Pant are having no trouble in trying to keep the deliveries out.

India 195/3

IND vs SL LIVE SCORE: The third and final session of the opening day is underway. Padikkal and Pant in the middle for India. Nuwantha with the ball in hand.

IND vs SL LIVE SCORE: With that it is tea. Sri Lanka will be happy with how that session finished. An important wicket of the set batter.

IND - 187/3

IND vs SL LIVE SCORE: EDGE AND TAKEN!!! Gill was untroubled in his knock so far. But a lapse in conctration, he pokes at a delivery outside the off stump and that results in his demise. Sri Lanka have finally broken the partnership.

IND - 186/3

IND vs SL LIVE SCORE: Full ball at the leg stump. Gill taps it past the short fine leg fielder and takes a single. With that he reaches his half-century.

IND -183/2

IND vs SL LIVE SCORE: A negative ploy here from Sri Lanka. The spinner is constantly bowling a leg stump line, and Shubman Gill is happy to pad the ball away. This partnership between Gill and Padikkal has now worked beyond 100 runs.

IND - 166/2

IND vs SL LIVE SCORE: Devdutt Padikkal has built on his great form. After the massive hundred in the first Test, he has gone past 50 in this second match, too. By the looks of it, he is building towards another big knock.

IND - 164/2
